It’s not quite WrestleMania weekend yet, but Triple H is already devoting at least part of his booker’s brain to what comes next. And apparently, that includes the next edition of the WWE Draft.
The 2023 WWE Draft took place a few weeks after WrestleMania 39 (after the previous three iterations were held in the fall), and it sounds like that might be the case again this year.
While appearing on the Impaulsive podcast, Triple H fielded a question from Logan Paul about whether he might be able to move from SmackDown to Raw once the Netflix deal to carry Raw kicked in. The WWE CCO promptly reminded him there’s a mechanism for that (h/t Fightful for the transcription).
I’m sure we’ll see people float all over places. There’s a thing called, in a month or so, there is a thing called the Draft. That’s when you can switch around and make moves.
“In a month or so” might turn out to be exactly right. The 2023 WWE Draft spanned the April 28 episode of SmackDown and the May 1 episode of Raw, with any roster moves taking effect starting on May 8.
If WWE takes a similar road this year, it would put the draft on April 26-29, or perhaps the following week on May 3-6. The company will undoubtedly publicize it ahead of time, so watch the next few weeks of Raw and SmackDown for more.
